    Had to renew my passport at the central police station. I visit downtown area only if I have to. Last time I was there some street beggars asked me if I had any drugs to sell

    Anyway I planned my trip very carefully to arrive exactly 10 min before my appointment. Somehow I showed up 50 min too early, went outside to kill some time

    There was an outdoor theatre in the park nearby and I joined to watch. The play was about some kids who kept getting lost and then they found each other again, I have no idea what was going on

    The play ends, everyone gets up to leave and I realize the play was for kids with special needs and I stick out like a soar thumb (or do I? no one paid to me any attention, though)

    I keep on walking and see a collection of street vendors. One of them is selling red beach towels. I wanted to buy one and wrap myself in it immediately, but then I see that it's all some kind of pride themed merchandise. This trip almost ended in a disaster

    Renewed my passport and reacquainted with some parts of the city. This part of town used to be a container terminal. I hate the building on the left (Munch Museum), but what the heck is that Mad Max theme park in the middle? What do you guys think

    • What happened to the old Munch Museum? I've not been to Oslo in 15 years, looks so different now .thumb_screws
    • The old Munch Museum still exists, used as a gallery for local artists.
      There has been massive development in what used to be an industrial area      drgs
